Ultima settimana del novembre 1327. Il novizio Adso da Melk accompagna in un'abbazia dell'alta Italia frate Guglielmo da Baskerville, incaricato di una sottile e imprecisa missione diplomatica. Ex inquisitore, amico di Guglielmo di Occam e di Marsilio da Padova, frate Guglielmo si trova a dover dipanare una serie di misteriosi delitti (sette in sette giorni, perpetrati nel chiuso della cinta abbaziale) che insanguinano una biblioteca labirintica e inaccessibile. Per risolvere il caso, Guglielmo dovrà decifrare indizi di ogni genere, dal comportamento dei santi a quello degli eretici, dalle scritture negromantiche al linguaggio delle erbe, da manoscritti in lingue ignote alle mosse diplomatiche degli uomini di potere. La soluzione arriverà, forse troppo tardi, in termini di giorni, forse troppo presto, in termini di secoli.

"In mezzo alla città di cemento e asfalto, Marcovaldo va in cerca della Natura. Ma esiste ancora, la Natura? Quella che egli trova è una Natura dispettosa, contraffatta, compromessa con la vita artificiale. Personaggio buffo e melanconico, Marcovaldo è il protagonista d'una serie di favole moderne, dove Italo Calvino va segnando, come in un suo block-notes segreto, avvenimenti impercettibili nella vita di una grande città industriale, quali possono essere il passaggio d'una nuvola carica di pioggia o l'arrivo mattutino d'uno sbuffo di vento. Quando le avventure di Marcovaldo hanno raggiunto un bel numero, seguendo come un colorato calendario l'alternarsi delle stagioni, Calvino le ha disposte in un libro. Partite come divagazioni comico-poetiche sul tema - 'neorealistico' per eccellenza - della più elementare lotta per la vita, le venti favole di Marcovaldo arrivano alla rappresentazione della più complicata realtà d'oggi, alla satira del 'miracolo economico' e della 'civiltà del consumo'; ma sempre restano fedeli a una classica struttura narrativa: quella delle storielle a vignette dei giornalini per l'infanzia. Marcovaldo non è altro che un Fortunello contemporaneo, un Bonaventura all'incontrario, un Pampurio dei caseggiati popolari". (Italo Calvino)

Eva

Verga, Giovanni
Createspace Independent Pub

Eva Eva è un romanzo di Giovanni Verga scritto e pubblicato nel 1873 a Milano dall'editore Treves. « Avevo incontrato due volte quella donna - non era più bella di tutte le altre, né più elegante, ma non somigliava a nessun'altra. - Nei suoi occhi c'erano sguardi affascinanti, come il corruscare di un'esistenza procellosa che era pieno di attrattive. - Giovanni Verga, Eva » Quello che rappresenta la novità del romanzo, apparso a Milano nel 1873, è il personaggio femminile che il Verga, come scrive Giovanni Croci, "disegna, mostrandosi già scrittore avveduto, con una scioltezza di tratto, con una asciuttezza e verità di toni davvero sorprendenti". Durante un veglione in maschera che si tiene a La Pergola di Firenze, un arlecchino, un povero pittore di nome Enrico Lanti arrivato dalla Sicilia per trovar fortuna, scommette con alcuni giovani che riuscirà a baciare una bella mascherina. Si reca in seguito sul palco e inizia a raccontare, ad un suo amico scrittore che ha incontrato casualmente, il suo amore per la maschera che vuole baciare. Si tratta di Eva che si guadagna la vita facendo la ballerina di lusso e della quale Enrico si è follemente innamorato. Eva lo ricambia pur continuando a condurre la sua vita spregiudicata. Quando però si rende conto che il giovane è tormentato dalla gelosia, decide di dividere con lui le privazioni e lasciare la sua vita. Ella si renderà però presto conto che, perduti gli splendori tra i quali Enrico l'ha conosciuta, ha perso per lui ogni attrazione e quindi, senza drammi ma con molto realismo, dopo avergli scritto una lettera equilibrata e lucida, lo lascia e ritorna alla vita di prima. "Mio caro Enrico, tu non mi ami più, io non ti amo più nemmeno - e siamo pari. Te l'avevo predetto! Tu mi hai visto attizzare il fuoco, e far la calza; io ti ho visto stendere tranquillamente i colori sulle tue stupide fotografie, senza ispirazione e senza entusiasmo; ecco perché non ci amiamo più. Le asprezze, i diverbi, le amarezze, sono degli accessori. Domani forse saremmo arrivati a picchiarci! Ti lascio, e credo far del bene anche a te. Tu hai bisogno di sognare per buscarti gloria e quattrini; io non ho che la mia giovinezza, e bisogna che ne approfitti se non voglio andare a finire all'ospedale. Tu hai il cuore buono; ti ho parlato con franchezza, e credo perciò di non lasciarti in collera. Io ti voglio sempre del bene, e te lo proverò, quando potrò. Eccoti 500 lire." Enrico, dopo i primi tempi di sofferenza, si riprende e presto riesce ad affermarsi come pittore ottenendo la gloria e l'agiatezza che desiderava. Il giovane viene così ripreso dal desiderio di riconquistare la donna ma non riesce perché Eva ha un amante. Enrico lo sfida a duello ferendolo e alla fine, nuovamente povero, ammalato di tubercolosi, piena la mente del ricordo della donna e infelice per il proprio fallimento, muore al suo paese nella casa paterna.

In questo romanzo Niccolò Ammaniti va al cuore della sua narrativa, con una storia tesa e dal ritmo serrato, un congegno a orologeria che si carica fino a una conclusione sorprendente: e mette in scena la paura stessa. Michele Amitrano, nove anni, si trova di colpo a fare i conti con un segreto cosi grande e terribile da non poterlo nemmeno raccontare. E per affrontarlo dovrà trovare la forza proprio nelle sue fantasie di bambino, mentre il lettore assiste a una doppia storia: quella vista con gli occhi di Michele e quella, tragica, che coinvolge i grandi di Acqua Traverse, misera frazione dispersa tra i campi di grano. Il risultato è un racconto potente e di assoluta felicità narrativa, dove si respirano atmosfere che vanno da Clive Barker alle Avventure di Tom Sawyer, alle Fiabe italiane di Calvino. La storia è ambientata nell'estate torrida del 1978 nella campagna di un Sud dell'Italia non identificato, ma evocato con rara forza descrittiva. In questo paesaggio dominato dal con

In this very useful manual, Dr. Ragusa has presented all the Italian really needed in everyday life and contemporary situations, without devoting space to the intricacies of literary, archaic, and poetic forms that you are not likely to need.It is remarkable how readily Italian grammar lends itself to this form of essential grammar, for within this book Miss Ragusa has presented her material with such clarity that you will probably remember most of what you have read after a single reading. Among the unusual features of this presentation are an extremely clear statement of the complex pronoun situation, an easily followed analysis of the various verb tenses and moods, and a most useful discussion of the many verb idioms that are so important in Italian.All the major aspects of Italian grammar are presented in logical, developmental order: vocabulary, vocabulary building, word order, turning negative sentences into positive and vice versa, forming questions, nouns, articles, prepositions, adjectives, adverbs, verbs, verbal idioms, and whatever else is necessary to a knowledge of essential Italian. An appendix contains clear definitions of all the grammatical terms used in the book.Essential Italian Grammar is not a simplified grammar, not an abridged grammar, but a selected grammar for adult use, with emphasis upon explanation rather than rote memory, and with inclusion of much phrase material for examples. It can be used as a supplement to a course, as an introduction, or as a refresher for those who have already studied Italian.

An opening section presents the basics of Italian pronunciation, spelling, and sentence structure. Sections that follow cover all verb tenses and moods, nouns, adjectives, prepositions, and adverbs. A final multi-chapter section deals with several "need-to-know" subjects including the difficult Italian verb piacere, idiomatic expressions, numbers, telling time and dates, and a summary of basic conversation and writing techniques. A special feature is a series of "Culture Capsules" presented throughout the book in Italian, describing interesting aspects of Italian culture, and supplemented with a bilingual glossary. Exercises with answers are presented at the end of each chapter, and word lists and verb charts are presented at the back of the book.
